Who is to Blame for the Dating Crisis?
About this episode
Why does the dating market suck, and why are marriage and fertility rates down?… Well, by the time a boy in this country turns 18, he has already been suspended twice as often, diagnosed with a learning disability three times as often, and told none of it matters because he’s a boy. For 30 years we’ve been told the story that men are the problem - they’re immature, they’re not stepping up. The data says something almost nobody’s willing to say out loud: the men are reading the numbers correctly, and the story is the lie.
